Re: Induction length

There is another twist -- I believe that when veloce <meant> veloce, the
intake valves and exhaust valves overlapped, so that the inertia of the
exhaust leaving aided in drawing-in the intake charge -- for a 1300cc
engine, the Giulietta veloce could get quite a bit of fuel through (and
naturally trailed flame at high rpm).  Damn, what a car.
